About

Hey everybody! My name is Bevin Branlandingham! Welcome to the Queer Fat Femme Guide to Life, chronicling my relentless pursuit of joy! When I started identifying as queer, fat and femme my whole world changed. Growing up bullied, insecure and feeling like no one understood me was really difficult. I learned by meeting other folks who were living their truths that there was so much more to life! Being myself, fearlessly and in spite of oppression, I felt a freedom that I wanted to share with other folks, so I started! First as a stage performer (drag, burlesque and femmeceeing shows), blogger, podcaster, and vlogger. Now, I go live every day teaching people how to love themselves more!

This is a lifestyle blog, a memoir, an advice column, a fat style blog, a bit of travel journalism, an exploration of spirituality, a tea blog, a sexuality blog, event announcements and self care how-to.

I have a lot of interests, but everything I do stems from making the world safe for people to love themselves, regardless of their differences.

I live with my partner Fiance Supreme (Dara) and our muppet pets (Macy and Biscuit Reynolds). We moved to Los Angeles, California in 2016, leaving behind my day job career in law to become a healer and artist full time. To pay the bills, my partner is supporting my career transition through her consulting work bringing empathy into school and workplace culture.

I created Fat Kid Dance Party Aerobics (For All Sizes to Heal from Body Oppression), and I tour colleges and other places to present workshops or perform. I have an energy healing practice based in LA (and can do distance healings). I have a healing tea business and I also officiate weddings!
